[0033] According to the present invention, a parking garage system is disclosed. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , it includes a parking rack 200 and a handling device 100. The parking rack 200 includes a plurality of main racks 210 and brackets 220. The plurality of main racks 210 are arranged in parallel in sequence, and an aisle 230 is reserved between two adjacent main racks 210. The brackets 220 are connected to two adjacent main racks 210. Both the main racks 210 and the brackets 220 are used for carrying vehicles; wherein, the handling device 100 is used to carry the vehicle to the main racks 210 and the brackets 220.

[0034] Specifically, with the above design of the parking rack 200, in addition to the main brackets 220 where vehicles can be placed, vehicles can also be placed on the brackets 220 added on the aisle 230, so that vehicles can be placed more densely in the parking garage to meet the requirements of the number of vehicles; at the same time, through the setting of the handling device 100, the handling device 100 is used to carry the vehicle to the main racks 210 or the brackets 220 to complete the dense placement of the vehicles.

[0035] In some embodiments, the main frame 210 includes a main beam 211, two lower support beams 212 and two upper support beams 213. The main beam 211 is arranged along the length direction of the aisle 230. One lower support beam 212 is horizontally and fixedly connected to the lower part of one side of the main beam 211 close to one aisle 230, that is, the lower part on the left side of the main beam 211. The other lower support beam 212 is horizontally and fixedly connected to the lower part of the other side of the main beam 211 close to the other aisle 230, that is, the lower part on the right side of the main beam 211. The two lower support beams 212 are located in the same plane. Along the length direction of the aisle 230, a plurality of parking spaces are arranged at intervals on each lower support beam 212, and each parking space is used for placing a vehicle. Similarly, one upper support beam 213 is horizontally and fixedly connected to the upper part of one side of the main beam 211 close to one aisle 230, that is, the upper part on the left side of the main beam 211. The other upper support beam 213 is horizontally and fixedly connected to the upper part of the other side of the main beam 211 close to the other aisle 230, that is, the upper part on the right side of the main beam 211. The two upper support beams 213 are located in the same plane. Along the length direction of the aisle 230, a plurality of parking spaces are arranged at intervals on each upper support beam 213, and each parking space is used for placing a vehicle. As can be seen from the above, with the support 220 adopting the above structure, both the lower support beam 212 and the upper support beam 213 can place vehicles, and vehicles can be densely placed on the main frame 210, thus meeting the requirements of the number of vehicles.

[0036] In some embodiments, the support 220 includes a first support 221 and a second support 222. The first support 221 is fixedly connected to the upper support beam 213 on one side of the aisle 230, and the first support 221 can be used to support the front of the vehicle. The second support 222 is fixedly connected to the upper support beam 213 on the other side of the aisle 230, and the second support 222 can be used to support the rear of the vehicle. A clearance is reserved between the first support 221 and the second support 222, and the clearance can allow the handling device 100 to pass through.

[0037] Further, the parking rack 200 includes a plurality of the above-mentioned supports 220, that is, the parking rack 200 includes a plurality of first supports 221 and a plurality of second supports 222. The plurality of first supports 221 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of one upper support beam 213, and one first support 221 is correspondingly arranged for one parking space of this upper support beam 213. The plurality of second supports 222 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the other upper support beam 213, and one second support 222 is correspondingly arranged for one parking space of this upper support beam 213. Among them, the first supports 221 and the second supports 222 are arranged at intervals, and a clearance 223 is reserved between the first supports 221 and the second supports 222.

[0038] As can be seen from the above, by arranging the first support 221 and the second support 222 at intervals, firstly, the handling device 100 can pass through the clearance gap 223, so that the vehicle can be transported to the next parking space, avoiding interference between the first support 221 and the second support 222 with the movement of the handling device 100; secondly, when the handling device 100 can place the vehicles on the support 220 in sequence, that is, on the first support 221 and the second support 222, the supports 220 can be arranged in sequence along the length direction of the upper support beam 213. Therefore, the vehicles can be placed in sequence above the aisle 230, so that the vehicles can be placed more densely in the garage, thus meeting the requirements of the number of vehicles.

[0039] Furthermore, multiple first supports 221 located on the same upper support beam 213 are fixedly connected, and multiple second supports 222 located on the same upper support beam 213 are fixedly connected. In this way, the overall structural strength of the parking rack 200 is relatively large; or, multiple first supports 221 located on the same upper support beam 213 are separately arranged, and multiple second supports 222 located on the same upper support beam 213 are separately arranged. In this way, the maintenance of the parking rack 200 is more convenient.

[0040] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 And Figure 4 , the handling device 100 includes a trolley 110, a bearing seat 130 and a lifting device 120. The trolley 110 is used to roll on the ground; the bearing seat 130 is used to bear the vehicle; the lifting device 120 is connected to the trolley 110 and the bearing seat 130, and is used to lift the bearing seat 130 upward. Among them, the lifting device 120 includes a lifting mechanism 121, a moving wheel 122 and a lifting cable 123. The lifting mechanism 121 is connected to the trolley 110, the moving wheel 122 is rotatably connected to the lifting mechanism 121, the lifting mechanism 121 is used to drive the moving wheel 122 to move upward, the lifting cable 123 is wound around the moving wheel 122, one end of the lifting cable 123 is fixedly connected to the trolley 110, and the other end of the lifting cable 123 is connected to the bearing seat 130, and is used to lift the bearing seat 130 upward.

[0041] Specifically, when the vehicle is placed on the bearing seat 130, the lifting mechanism 121 applies an upward force to the moving wheel 122, the moving wheel 122 moves upward by h, the lifting cable 123 moves relative to the circumferential surface of the moving wheel 122, and the end of the lifting cable 123 connected to the bearing seat 130 moves upward by 2h, so that the bearing seat 130 moves upward by 2h. As can be seen from the above, even if the height of the lifting mechanism 121 is limited and the height that the lifting mechanism 121 can move the moving wheel 122 upward is relatively low, through the design of the moving wheel 122 and the lifting cable 123, the bearing seat 130 can be lifted upward to a relatively high height, so that the vehicle on the bearing seat 130 can be lifted to a relatively high position.

[0042] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 121 includes a fixed frame 1211, a lifting seat 1212, and a driving assembly 1213. The fixed frame 1211 is vertically fixed to the top of the trolley 110. The lifting seat 1212 is vertically slidably connected to the fixed frame 1211. The driving assembly 1213 is connected to the lifting seat 1212 and is used to drive the lifting seat 1212 to move upward. Among them, the driving wheel 122 is rotatably connected to the lifting seat 1212. Specifically, the driving assembly 1213 drives the lifting seat 1212 to move upward. The lifting seat 1212 lifts the driving wheel 122 upward. The driving wheel 122 moves the end of the hoisting cable 123 connected to the bearing seat 130 upward, so that the bearing seat 130 is lifted to the required height, and then the vehicle on the bearing seat 130 is lifted to the required height.

[0043] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism 121 further includes a guide rail 124. The guide rail 124 is vertically fixed to the lifting seat 1212. The bearing seat 130 is vertically slidably connected to the guide rail 124. Specifically, when the handling device 100 works, under the action of the driving assembly 1213, the lifting seat 1212 moves upward, thereby driving the bearing seat 130 to perform a first-level lift upward; at the same time, during the upward movement of the lifting seat 1212, the lifting seat 1212 drives the driving wheel 122 to move upward, so that the end of the hoisting cable 123 connected to the bearing seat 130 moves upward, so that the bearing seat 130 performs a second-level lift. As can be seen from the above, even if the height of the lifting mechanism 121 is limited and the height that the lifting seat 1212 of the lifting mechanism 121 can move the driving wheel 122 upward is relatively low, through the design of the driving wheel 122 and the hoisting cable 123, the bearing seat 130 can be lifted to a relatively high height, so that the vehicle on the bearing seat 130 can be lifted to a relatively high position.

[0044] In some embodiments, the driving assembly 1213 includes a lead screw 1214, a driving member 1216, and a transmission assembly 1215. The fixed frame 1211 has two (refer to Figure 6 ). One fixed frame 1211 is vertically connected to the left side of the trolley 110. One lead screw 1214 is rotatably connected to one fixed frame 1211. The other fixed frame 1211 is vertically connected to the right side of the trolley 110. The other lead screw 1214 is rotatably connected to the other fixed frame 1211. The left side of the lifting seat 1212 is threadedly connected to one lead screw 1214. The right side of the lifting seat 1212 is threadedly connected to the other lead screw 1214. The transmission assembly 1215 rotates both lead screws 1214 at the same time. The driving member 1216 is a motor. The motor is connected to the transmission assembly 1215 and is used to drive the transmission assembly 1215 to move.

[0045] Specifically, when the motor-driven transmission assembly 1215 operates, the transmission assembly 1215 drives two lead screws 1214 to rotate simultaneously. The two lead screws 1214 act on the lifting seat 1212 at the same time, and the lifting seat 1212 moves upward, thereby driving the driving wheel 122 upward to lift the hoisting cable 123 and the bearing seat 130, and thus lift the vehicle on the bearing seat 130. Among them, there are two lead screws 1214, and the two lead screws 1214 act on the lifting seat 1212 at the same time, so as to ensure that the lifting seat 1212 can move up and down stably; through the setting of the transmission assembly 1215, the driving member 1216 acts on the transmission assembly 1215, and the transmission assembly 1215 acts on the two lead screws 1214 at the same time, so as to ensure that the two lead screws 1214 rotate synchronously, and further ensure that the two lead screws 1214 drive the lifting seat 1212 to move upward synchronously.

[0046] Instead of the above-mentioned drive assembly 1213, the drive assembly 1213 includes a first sprocket, a second sprocket, a chain and a drive member (not shown in the figure). The drive member is a motor. The second sprocket is connected to the drive shaft of the motor, and the second sprocket is rotatably connected to the fixed frame. The first sprocket and the second sprocket are at different heights. The chain is adapted to the first sprocket and the second sprocket, and the lifting seat 1212 is connected to the chain. Specifically, the motor drives the first sprocket to rotate, and the first sprocket drives the chain to move upward, thereby driving the lifting seat 1212 to move upward, and thus driving the driving wheel 122 to move upward.

[0047] In some embodiments, the driving wheel 122 is a sprocket, and the hoisting cable 123 is a chain adapted to the sprocket. In this way, during the upward movement of the lifting seat 1212, the sprocket and the chain move relative to each other, and the sprocket stably pulls the chain upward, thereby pulling the bearing seat 130 to move upward along the guide rail 124; or, the driving wheel 122 is a guide wheel, and the hoisting cable 123 is a steel rope wound around the circumferential surface of the guide wheel. In this way, during the upward movement of the lifting seat 1212, the guide wheel stably pulls the steel rope upward, thereby pulling the bearing seat 130 to move upward along the guide rail 124.

[0048] In some embodiments, the handling device 100 further includes a vehicle-carrying plate 140 (refer to Figure 5 ), the vehicle-carrying plate 140 is movably placed on the bearing seat 130, and the vehicle-carrying plate 140 is used to place the vehicle. Through the setting of the vehicle-carrying plate 140, firstly, the upper surface of the vehicle-carrying plate 140 can safely support the four wheels of the vehicle, so that the vehicle is safely placed on the bearing seat 130. Secondly, the vehicle is placed on the parking rack 200 in the garage, and the vehicle-carrying plate 140 is also placed on the parking rack 200 in the garage, so that the vehicle is safely placed on the parking rack 200.

[0049] In some embodiments, the trolley 110 is an AGV vehicle body. In this way, the trolley 110 can rotate in any direction. Under the rotation of the trolley 110, the bearing seat 130 can be horizontally oriented in any position, so as to place the vehicle at any position of the parking rack 200.

[0050] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art. In addition, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
